After weeks of negotiations, House Republicans have drawn a road map to lead Puerto Rico out of its financial quagmire, with support from the Obama administration… A bill introduced shortly before midnight on Wednesday would put Puerto Rico’s fiscal affairs under direct federal control and establish a legal framework for reducing its $72 billion load of debt…. The House bill would not change Puerto Rico’s exclusion, but instead would give Puerto Rico and other United States territories a set of rules for reducing their debts outside of bankruptcy.
